Motoped adds one more cool machine to their roster, in the form of the Survival model, a bike with a strong military attire, but an exceptional vehicle in all situations.
This super-hauler is, like the other Motoped bike we brought you, a stunning crossbreed between a mountain bike and lightweight motorcycle. Motoped Survival retains full functionality of both machines and blends them into a new species which looks like it could help anyone escape a zombie attack or, in the absence of flesh-eating monsters, have the fun of a lifetime in the wild, time after time.
Is 400 to 500 miles range enough for the traveller in you?
Survival is equipped with a primary fuel tank and two auxiliary ones which dramatically extend the maximum range. Motoped says that the bike can do between 400 and 500 miles (640-800 km) on a single fill-up, and this makes it a great choice for those who feel like venturing in areas where gas stations are rare.
The bike can be equipped with a 49cc or an 125cc engine, making 2.4 hp or 7.8 hp, respectively. The small engine produces a peak torque of 1.7 lb-ft (2.3 Nm), while the bigger option delivers 6 lb-ft (8.1 Nm). The 49cc engine only comes with electric starting, while its bigger sibling is equipped with an extra kickstarter.
Suspensions are DNM at both ends, and Hayes rotors are used for the hydraulic brakes. The top speed is 24 mph (38 km/h), which is better than what a zombified Usain Bolt would do.
The universal rack is inspired by the military vehicles and it can accommodate a lot of gear, from rope, cable, soft bags, shovels, guns, crossbows and even holy water canisters, if you think this will help better than a machete
